Hyosung x Lenzing
Hyosung TNC, the world’s largest elastane manufacturer, and Lenzing Group, a global leader in regenerated cellulosic fibers, have collaborated to create a yoga fabric collection that combines eco-certified materials, high performance, and inspiration from nature.
The new collection will debut at Performance Days Munich on October 29–30, where both companies will present a yoga-inspired concept range designed by Hyosung TNC’s Fashion Design Center. The garments feature various blends of Lenzing’s TENCEL and LENZING ECOVERO fibers made with REFIBRA technology, along with Hyosung TNC’s regen BIO Elastane, partly made from renewable sources,100% recycled regen Elastane, and CREORA® Color+ Elastane.
“Collaborative innovation is the key to the future of performance textiles,” said Nicole Schram, Lenzing’s Head of Global Technical Development. “This partnership with Hyosung TNC perfectly demonstrates how collaboration can accelerate the shift toward bio-based, traceable, and scalable material alternatives. Together, we are reimagining material science with sustainability at its core. This collection is not just about blending fibers, it’s about moving the entire industry toward responsible production.”
Simon Whitmarsh-Knight, Hyosung’s Global Sustainability Director – Textiles, added, “Many brands have approached us for a sustainable elastane that completes their bio-based story. Our regen BIO Elastane pairs beautifully with Lenzing’s wood-based fibers, creating a truly sustainable and high-performance solution. Partnerships like this are vital as the textile industry works to meet both brand and consumer sustainability goals.”
